Baen's put out many of these Andre Norton collections. You just have to dig a bit to see what's in some of them. Once you know what's in Darkness and Dawn, the title is clever. Before you know, it just makes it hard to find your book.

Here's the number one rule regarding the process of avid reading: The book you want the most is harder to find than a needle in a haystack. I spent years locating The 87th Precinct series, and just this fall, I noticed that most titles are on Kindle Unlimited. My library contains around 10 paperback novels in this series. I do not know of any Overdrive affiliated libraries with over a dozen novels in Ed McBain's series. Obviously, if there are, someone will post that information. As with any search, you find other authors while you're digging around. Back in the 60's and 70's, I became interested in the novels/stories of R.A. Lafferty and Thomas Disch. It's 2023, and Kobo US seems to have almost no major Disch novels. However, Amazon offers Camp Concentration, 334, On Wings of Song, and The Genocides, all at reasonable prices. People seem to have a love/hate relationship with Amazon. Anyway, my current search involves locating ebooks from Ross Thomas. He wrote the Mac McCorkle and Arthur Case Wu series. Hope someone digitizes the books, and offers them in ebook versions. So far, only two titles exist as ebooks.

The Last Hero by Terry Pratchett. This is a heavily illustrated book in his Discworld series, and I bought a physical copy to continue the series when I got to it.

Chopper by Peter Cave
The book I have always wanted on EBook is/was a book called
CHOPPER By Peter Cave, its only on paperback (1971). I have tried for years to obtain a copy on E-Book ,but nothing came of it, Now im older and wiser I decided to do my own copy , I have 2 original copy's on Paperback That I had in 1971, I desided to scan the book and converted into PDF format then ran it through Calibre to convert to Mobi and epub. So now I have it on eBook.... https://images.45worlds.com/f/bk/pet...chopper-bk.jpg Last edited by Exorcist74; 02-05-2023 at 08:19 AM. |

I already bought and read the hardcover, and don't live in the UK anyway. Because of its large color illustrations, I recommend reading it as a hardcover and not as an ebook.
